The Gospel That We Hear By Its Tenor
2010-12-10 16:59
The will of I AM was already in Him. The work of creation is to fulfill the will.
Because His glory is, its radiance is. Because His being is, His image is. Becuase the Father is, His Son is. Because the Majesty is, the right hand of the Majesty is. And so, the only true God, I AM, is the glory, the being, the Father and the Majesty.
Therefore, it is written in the Book of Truth, "but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven." (Hebrews 1:2-3)
Because in the order of creation, the heavens were first, and the earth last, the will of God was fulfilled among the angels in heaven, and then is being fulfilled among men on earth. And so the Lord Jesus taught us the prayer, "...your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven." (Matthew 6:10).
Now the will of God is being done on earth through Christ Jesus. It is written in the Book of Truth, "Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said: 'Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me; with burnt offerings and sin offerings you were not pleased. Then I said, Here I am--it is written about me in the scroll--I have come to do your will, O God.' First he said, 'Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them' (although the law required them to be made). Then he said, 'Here I am, I have come to do your will.' He sets aside the first to establish the second." (Hebrews 10:5-9).
Therefore, the Lord Jesus said, "If anyone chooses to do God's will, he will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own. He who speaks on his own does so to gain honor for himself, but he who works for the honor of the one who sent him is a man of truth; there is nothing false about him." (John 7:17-18). And also, "Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent." (John 17:3).
All the words in the Bible show as in a mirror the will of God and how it is fulfilled. It is written, Then the LORD said to Moses, "Write these words, for according to the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel." (Exodus 34:27).
Therefore, we cannot see God in the words, but in the tenor of the words. It is written, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men." (John 1:1-4). If anyone cannot see the life and light in the Word, he cannot get the right to become children of God.
The Bible distinguishes between a sound from heaven and the tenor of the sound. It is written, "And I heard a sound from heaven like the roar of rushing waters and like a loud peal of thunder. The sound I heard was like that of harpists playing their harps." (Revelation 14:2).
The sound of gospel is like that. The sound of gospel that those who have received the spirit of the world hear is completely different from the sound of gospel that those who have received the Spirit who is from God hear. Those who are in the flesh receive the gospel by the flesh, but those who are in the Spirit receive the gospel by the Spirit. And so, the Bible said, "We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us." (1 Corinthians 2:12).
Therefore, the Bible says about those who do the will of God and those who do not the will of God, "and come out--those who have done good will rise to live, and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned." (John 5:29). Accordingly, heaven and hell are separated. It is because doing the will of God is good, and not doing the will of God is evil.
The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever. (1 John 2:17). Amen, Amen. Thank you, Lord.
Because His glory is, its radiance is. Because His being is, His image is. Becuase the Father is, His Son is. Because the Majesty is, the right hand of the Majesty is. And so, the only true God, I AM, is the glory, the being, the Father and the Majesty.
Therefore, it is written in the Book of Truth, "but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven." (Hebrews 1:2-3)
Because in the order of creation, the heavens were first, and the earth last, the will of God was fulfilled among the angels in heaven, and then is being fulfilled among men on earth. And so the Lord Jesus taught us the prayer, "...your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven." (Matthew 6:10).
Now the will of God is being done on earth through Christ Jesus. It is written in the Book of Truth, "Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said: 'Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me; with burnt offerings and sin offerings you were not pleased.

Then he said, 'Here I am, I have come to do your will.' He sets aside the first to establish the second." (Hebrews 10:5-9).
Therefore, the Lord Jesus said, "If anyone chooses to do God's will, he will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own. He who speaks on his own does so to gain honor for himself, but he who works for the honor of the one who sent him is a man of truth; there is nothing false about him." (John 7:17-18). And also, "Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent." (John 17:3).

He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men." (John 1:1-4).

The sound of gospel is like that. The sound of gospel that those who have received the spirit of the world hear is completely different from the sound of gospel that those who have received the Spirit who is from God hear. Those who are in the flesh receive the gospel by the flesh, but those who are in the Spirit receive the gospel by the Spirit. And so, the Bible said, "We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us." (1 Corinthians 2:12).

(John 5:29). Accordingly, heaven and hell are separated. It is because doing the will of God is good, and not doing the will of God is evil.
The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever. (1 John 2:17). Amen, Amen. Thank you, Lord.
